Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • 3 large garlic cloves, chopped fine
  • 1 large red onion, chopped fine
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 chicken bouillon cubes
  • 2 smoked turkey legs
  • 3 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 quarts water
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 5 lb collard greens

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients in large pot (except greens), and bring to a boil. Add greens and return to boil and continue to boil, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours. Carefully remove bones and skin from turkey, add turkey meat back to greens and return to a boil.
